You’re not just an anxious person. You’re someone who’s been stuck in fight-or-flight, chasing perfection, people-pleasing, and hiding your truth behind a smile.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Stephanie Lopez—a former NASA psychologist turned healing coach—who helps women stop the cycle of emotional suppression and finally reclaim their peace.

If you’re tired of living for validation, avoiding mistakes like they’re landmines, or letting fear be the driver of your decisions… this one will shake your soul (in the best way).

💥 We dive into:

Why anxiety is often a mask for deeper emotions

What your perfectionism is really protecting you from

The power of self-accountability (and why most people never learn it)

How to stop letting fear run your life—and start taking your power back

Dr. Steph doesn’t just talk mindset—she lives it. And she’s got the tools to help you do the same.

🎧 Whether you're a high-achieving mom, entrepreneur, or woman on the edge of her next breakthrough… this convo is your permission slip to be brave, messy, and FREE.

🔥 Let this be the sign you’ve been waiting for.

👉 Hit play, take notes, and then share this with the strongest woman you know (even if she doesn’t feel strong right now).
